If you have problems with your schoolwork, who can you get help from?

Teachers are important persons for you because they can give you useful advice (建议) on your problems. They can also give you some useful ideas about how to finish schoolwork better. Helping children learn is their job, so be sure to ask them for advice!

Many places have after-school care for children. Homework help is part of it. There, you can get some help from adults and other children as well.

You might also try a local homework help line (热线) . It can help you by phone. In this way, teachers, older students, and other experts (专家) in school subjects can give you some help.

You can also use the Internet to visit online homework help sites (网站). These sites can give you much knowledge. But sometimes you can’t stop copying information from a site. It isn’t right. So knowing how to use information right is necessary.

Another choice is a tutor (指导老师). The tutor can spend time going over schoolwork with you, but you should pay for him or her. If the price is high, you can share a tutor with a small group of children.
